Re: [SECURITY] [DSA 2895-1] prosody security update



Hi,

What about the prosody version in squeeze. Is it unaffected? If so, it
may help to make it clear in the DSA.

Warm regards and thanks for the good work,


Tom

 Package        : prosody

A denial-of-service vulnerability has been reported in Prosody, a
XMPP server. If compression is enabled, an attacker might send
highly-com- pressed XML elements (attack known as "zip bomb") over
XMPP streams and consume all the resources of the server.

The SAX XML parser lua-expat is also affected by this issues.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.2-4+deb7u1 of prosody.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.9.4-1 of prosody.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.2.0-5+deb7u1 of lua-expat.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.3.0-1 lua-expat.

We recommend that you upgrade your prosody and lua-expat packages.
